See why at Clarkson we are the place and time to defy convention by continually asking “What’s next?” The answers can come from anywhere—undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, staff and alumni—and we expect (and respect) the unexpected.

The Student Center is the hub of campus activity, and a place where students can come to spend time between classes, hold meetings and attend a variety of events including live music, stand-up comedy, and late night movie screenings. There are several lounges and spaces with comfortable chairs and tables for hanging out and relaxing. In addition, meeting rooms are available for organization meetings and other activities. Also available to students is the Forum, an innovative auditorium in the form of a stairwell equipped with a massive video wall. The space is often used for large events such as lectures, comedians, pre-released movie showings, and talent shows.

Besides being a great place to connect with your classmates, the Student Center is the home of many departments and services on campus. On the lowest level you can access the Mail Room and your student mailbox. You can also head over to the POD Store to pick up convenience items, listen to and watch the campus radio and TV station or write an article for the school newspaper (all of which have offices on this level). Our virtual game room is also on this level where you can play all of the newest video games on XBOX and Wii.

On the ground level of the Student Center you will be able to visit the Student Center Info Desk, the Clarkson University Student Association (CUSA) and Student Organizations office, Java City, Bar 9, and even get money through our North Country Savings Bank ATM. On this level you will find the traditional game room with pool, darts, bubble hockey, and ping pong games all free for student use.

The top floor of the Student Center houses our largest dining facility on campus as well as our Multipurpose Rooms (MPRs).
